There is an overwhelming amount of turmoil co-occurring worldwide today. It’s disheartening to see how some individuals and groups exploit religion as a justification for committing numerous atrocities, including violence, killing, discrimination, and oppression.
Honestly, it feels like nothin is going right in this country. D electricity supply is really poor,& network services are almost nonexistent. It's disheartening to see so many people with an unserious mindset. Despite living in this century, some still sell their votes for a govt

Honouring Two Extraordinary Nigerians: Charly Boy and Newton Jibunoh
Yesterday, July 31, I attended the launch of 999: The Memoir of Charly Boy in Lagos.
Charly Boy is one of those people many may easily dismiss because of his appearance or the public persona he projects. But beyond that is Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa, a thoughtful intellectual, a compassionate human being, and a patriot deeply committed to building a better society for all.
What particularly inspired me was the work he is doing through his foundation to promote men’s health. Having survived prostate cancer himself, he has chosen to transform his personal experience into a campaign for awareness, early detection, and improved access to treatment. Good health remains one of the most critical foundations of a productive and progressive society, and I am committed to supporting this noble cause.
Today, August 1st, I visited the newly established Newton Jibunoh Centre and Museum in Asaba, the brainchild of Newton Jibunoh. Although I was unable to attend his Mandela Day event, themed “Poverty and Inequality Are in Our Hands,” I considered it important to pay him a visit.
My dear Father, Newton Jibunoh, remains one of Nigeria’s living icons. He is a man whose stories, experiences, and wisdom can keep you listening for hours without fatigue. His remarkable road expeditions across the Sahara Desert to London, beginning in 1967 and repeated in 2000, 2008, and subsequent years, are enduring testimonies to courage, resilience, determination, and an adventurous spirit.
His extraordinary journeys also remind us of a period when travelling across Nigeria and beyond was far safer than it is today. Listening to him always leaves me reflecting on how much we have lost as a nation and how much work still lies ahead if we are to rebuild a secure, united, and prosperous Nigeria.
A New Nigeria is POssible! -PO
IT'S ALWAYS A JOY SHARING GOD'S WORD WITH YOU!
I can't wait to be with you again tomorrow as we explore His truth and experience His presence together.
See you at The Hebron in any of our two services, or at any of our 91 outlets around the world.

Rehabilitate Existing Infrastructure Before Embarking on New Projects
I have consistently advised governments at all levels to prioritise rehabilitating existing infrastructure before embarking on new projects that may also end up abandoned or left unfinished. For expressing this position, I have often been criticised and called all sorts of names. Yet, it remains the most responsible approach to governance.
It is therefore noteworthy that President Bola Tinubu has now cautioned state governors against committing scarce public resources to constructing unnecessary flyovers in areas with little traffic while neglecting more pressing developmental needs.
The President is, in essence, saying what I have always maintained: government must prioritise projects that directly address the immediate needs of the people. I hope those ministers, officials, and supporters who have consistently attacked this position will now direct the same criticism at him.
However, this admonition must also apply to the Federal Government. There are several unrealistic and white-elephant projects being pursued by the current administration, even as much of our critical infrastructure remains in a state of disrepair. Given our present fiscal realities, priority should be given to rehabilitating and completing existing infrastructure rather than embarking on expensive new projects with limited immediate impact.
Across Nigeria, many of our major highways linking commercial centres and food-producing communities have deteriorated into death traps. Neglecting these critical roads while pursuing prestige projects is neither economically prudent nor people-centred.
This philosophy guided my administration as Governor of Anambra State. I prioritised completing viable projects initiated by my predecessors before embarking on new ones. Government is a continuum, and development should never be measured by who starts a project, but by whether it is completed and serves the people.
Leadership is about making the right choices: fixing what is broken, completing what has already been started, and investing limited public resources where they will have the greatest impact on the greatest number of people.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Hunger and the Insensitivity of Mr. President
I watched with deep concern the statement made by President Bola Tinubu to the Catholic Bishops who visited his office, that there has always been hunger in Nigeria, even before he was born.
While it is true that hunger has been a part of human life and has existed in our country for decades, such a statement appears insensitive to the plight of the millions of Nigerians who face worsening economic hardship today. More importantly, we must focus on the facts and the measurable outcomes of governance.
Before the present administration assumed office in 2023, an estimated 17 million Nigerians were facing acute food insecurity, primarily caused by insecurity, armed conflict, widespread banditry, and devastating floods. Today, less than three years later, that number has risen to about 35 million Nigerians. Instead of improving the situation, the crisis has worsened significantly under the current administration.
The same trend is evident in poverty. Before this government took office in 2023, Nigeria’s extreme poverty was estimated at 87 million people. Current projections suggest that this number is approaching 140 million people, making Nigeria home to the largest population of people living in extreme poverty anywhere in the world.
No one disputes that this administration inherited serious challenges. However, leadership is measured not by the challenges inherited but by the results achieved. The government must honestly acknowledge that its response has fallen far short of what the situation demanded, with millions more Nigerians pushed deeper into poverty and hunger.
The combination of persistent insecurity, poor economic management, fiscal indiscipline, wasteful public expenditure, and inadequate investment in productive sectors has compounded the suffering of ordinary Nigerians.
A responsible government must prioritise investment in education, healthcare, agriculture, security, and small businesses while pursuing policies that create jobs, expand production, and lift people out of poverty. That remains my commitment to the Nigerian people.

“My sister cannot hear…”
One prayer offered in the name of Jesus Christ. One testimony to His power.
“Jesus said, ‘Ephphatha!’ (which means, ‘Be opened!’)” — Mark 7:34
The same Jesus who opened the ears of the deaf man in the Gospel of Mark continues to reveal His power today. Born with a hearing problem, Lee Ji received prayer in the name of Jesus Christ during the 2016 South Korea Crusade with Prophet T.B. Joshua. Following a medical re-examination, which showed that her hearing was now within the normal range, she returned to testify at the South Korea Pastors’ Conference, giving glory to Jesus Christ for her miraculous recovery.
Watch the full encounter on Emmanuel TV and witness this remarkable testimony to the power of Jesus Christ.
To God alone be the glory.

PRAYERS AGAINST FALSE ACCUSATIONS...
One of the enemy's most effective strategies is to weaponize false accusations. He raises false witnesses, manipulates narratives, and seeks to turn a lie into a verdict.
You must say, NO MORE.
As you pray along with me, prepare to be completely liberated from every conspiracy of the accuser!
Everyone you love should be part of the July Night of Remembrance (RMB) that starts tonight. Share this message with them and begin preparing together for a divine intervention.
